Girabola, or Campeonato Nacional de Futebol em Séniores Masculinos, is the top division of Angolan football. It is organized by the Angolan Football Federation.
The league winner and runner-up qualify for the CAF Champions League.
In January 2016, Angolan subscription TV satellite and cable provider ZAP, the Angolan Football Federation (FAF) and the Girabola clubs, signed a three-year deal in which ZAP will have broadcast rights over all Girabola matches. As part of the deal, the Angolan state-owned TV station TPA will be allowed to broadcast one game per week on its free-view platform. Also as part of the deal, the Girabola changes its denomination to Girabola ZAP.
The list of champions includes the national champions in the colonial period.
